Polymer-modified sand has been around for a while. However, Quikrete’s Hardscapes Polymeric Jointing Sand is different in that it’s been formulated to work in much wider joints like those between randomly-shaped flagstones, cobblestones and other pavers. Like its predecessors, you simply sweep the sand into the gaps between pavers, then saturate the material with a water mist. As it dries, the polymerized sand hardens to lock pavers in place. Quikrete says that the joint filler stands up to heavy traffic, while resisting erosion, weed growth and insects.

Can I add pea gravel to my polymer-modified sand in between my cobblestones? Is it strong enough to bond with them so they don't dislodge and leave holes in the sand? I am thinking about filling the joints almost all the way with the sand and then pushing a thin layer of the pea gravel in the top and sprinkling more sand to fill between the pieces of pea gravel. ANy words of wisdom you can offer will be appreciated.

I like the look of the 1151 gravel. Can this be combined with the 1151 paver sand so I can have the benefit of weed control?

Sure, have you finished yet? How did it turn out?

I'm going to try this in the gaps between my concrete slabs. The expansion joint material disappeared years ago.

It is expected to rain the next few days. Do you recommend laying pavers?

Hi Michael - this jointing sand has been created to resist erosion, weed/grass growth and insects. However, we have not specifically tested it against Bermuda grass at this time.

How does it hold up against Bermuda grass? Those little shoots seem to wiggle into everything.
